Description

The Occasional Oratorio is an oratorio by George Frideric Handel, based upon a libretto by Newburgh Hamilton after the poetry of John Milton and Edmund Spenser. The work was written in the midst of the Jacobite risings of 1745–1746, the attempt to overthrow Handel's patrons the Hanoverian monarch George II and replace him with a Stuart restoration under Charles Edward Stuart, Bonnie Prince Charlie

“The arrangements all sound fresh, and the playing is beyond reproach.”

Dr. Gavin Dixon

"WOW !!!!! all of you should be locked up !!!! What great stuff - the compositions/arrangements, the playing (OUTRAGEOUS !!! ), everything is simply fantastic. (actually - i couldn't have expected anything less ! ) Many, many thanks to you and all for your superb contributions. yet again, you've managed to raise the bar! (an inch or two is ok but a few yards is really unfair !!!!!!!!!! )"
